Chapter 91 Fool, the knife was already at his throat and he still didn't realize it.

When Xia Yuhuan informed Li Rouyue, she did not hesitate at all. When Xia Jianyong stopped her and questioned her the next day, she was a little surprised, but she could accept it.

"Why are you stopping me? Is something wrong?" Xia Yuhuan asked, feigning ignorance.

Xia Jianyong said coldly, "What nonsense did you say to Rouyue? We've already severed ties, and you still come here to ruin my family relationship. Xia Yuhuan, how can you be so shameless?"

He looked like he was about to breathe fire.

Xia Yuhuan looked at his furious, agitated state and blinked gently: "If you haven't done anything wrong, why are you so angry?"

"Besides, I didn't do anything. I just ran into your wife when I came back yesterday, and I told her that I accidentally saw you standing and talking with a young girl at the hospital. How did that ruin your relationship?"

"Besides, that young girl looks and has a similar temperament to your wife. I thought they were relatives, didn't I?"

Xia Yuhuan asked the question as if she already knew the answer.

She sighed inwardly: This third brother's fighting ability seems a bit lacking, otherwise how could he have revealed all his secrets to Xia Jianyong so easily?

Now that Xia Jianyong knows about this, it will be much harder for Li Rouyue to investigate Du Wanying.

"She's a relative of ours. I just bumped into her at the hospital and exchanged a few words with her. You're spreading rumors and almost got my wife into a fight with me. You're a real troublemaker." Xia Jianyong said righteously, his eyes flashing.

If Xia Yuhuan hadn't overheard their entire conversation, she probably would have been fooled by Xia Jianyong's righteous and righteous demeanor.

Are people who habitually do bad things thick-skinned?

So much so that they can lie without even blushing?

Xia Yuhuan inwardly curled her lip, her eyes full of disdain.

"You're the troublemaker, your whole family are troublemakers!" Xia Yuhuan retorted immediately. "I just said I saw you talking to a young woman and that she looked a lot like your wife. She misunderstood. What does that have to do with me?"

"Your wife suspects you, which means you have a bad reputation. So you should reflect on yourself instead of coming to me for trouble."

"Instead of wasting your time bothering me, you might as well go and explain things to your wife yourself."

After saying that, Xia Yuhuan left without lingering.

As Xia Jianyong watched Xia Yuhuan's retreating figure, a shadow crossed his eyes.

Bringing this rebellious daughter back was truly the worst decision he ever made in his life.

He must find an opportunity to get rid of Xia Yuhuan, so that she won't be an eyesore!

Xia Jianyong thought about it and then hurriedly left.

As he left the hospital and passed the entrance of an alley, someone grabbed his hand and pulled him into the alley.

Xia Jianyong was pressed against the wall, and his pupils constricted in horror.

"It's me," the newcomer said in a low, hoarse voice.

Xia Jianyong was taken aback when he heard the familiar voice.

Seeing that the man slightly raised the brim of his hat, revealing his eyes, Xia Jianyong recognized him even though he was still wearing a mask.

For a moment, Xia Jianyong couldn't help but feel nervous: "Why are you looking for me? Didn't we agree that we wouldn't contact each other again after that matter was over? Why are you looking for me again? Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid of being exposed?"

The man sneered, "You really think that what happened back then was flawless, leaving no trace?"

Xia Jianyong was startled by his words, his whole body tensed up, and he looked at him with fear in his eyes: "What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? Xia Jianyong, it seems you're really stupid. The knife is almost at your throat, and you still don't realize it? You're incredibly stupid!" the man sneered.

"You mean, someone has started investigating what happened back then?" Xia Jianyong asked again.

"This isn't the place to talk. Come with me." The man said, pulling his hat brim down, putting on his mask, and striding away.

Xia Jianyong hesitated for a moment, then quickly followed.

...

Meanwhile, Xia Yuhuan was focused on her research at the hospital.

Her gaze was focused and her eyes were deep. Jiang Zhicheng, standing beside her, also held his breath and watched her movements, not daring to disturb her in the slightest.

Xia Yuhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing between her brows: "It's done. The last toxin has been isolated."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhicheng immediately smiled and clapped his hands excitedly.

"That's great, that's really great. I didn't expect that all the toxic components could be isolated in just a few days. The next step is to arrange and combine these toxins."

"Once we figure out the right combination, we can make the antidote accordingly," Jiang Zhicheng said excitedly.

Xia Yuhuan smiled and nodded upon hearing this: "That's right."

Jiang Zhicheng exclaimed, "I thought it would take ten days to half a month to separate the toxins, but I didn't expect that with you here, it would be done so quickly. Xiao Huan, you are truly a genius in the medical field."

Xia Yuhuan blinked gently and smiled, "Master, please don't say that. The fact that we were able to achieve results in such a short time is not just my achievement, but the result of our joint efforts. Please don't be so modest."

Jiang Zhicheng smiled and shook his head, but didn't say anything more.

He did contribute, but definitely not as much as Xia Yuhuan.

This child seems to have been born for this line of work. Even though he taught her how to use the experimental equipment a couple of days earlier, she was already using it very well and could even perform multiple tasks simultaneously.

With such talent, she truly deserves the title of genius.

"Then we should experiment with the permutations and combinations of toxins. Once we've determined that, we can start thinking about how to develop an antidote."

Xia Yuhuan shook her head slightly upon hearing this: "There's no need for that much trouble. Once the toxins are separated, I should be able to cure Wang Qi's poison."

Jiang Zhicheng was immediately shocked upon hearing this: "You can already detoxify? That's amazing!"

“In ancient times, traditional Chinese medicine did not have the advanced technology to separate toxins as we do today. It had to rely on primitive methods. Many times, it could only rely on pulse diagnosis to distinguish toxicity, and then prescribe medicine and continuously experiment to detoxify.”

“Now that I know the composition of the toxin, I naturally know how to cure it,” Xia Yuhuan said calmly.

"Is traditional Chinese medicine really that amazing?" Jiang Zhicheng asked, stunned.

Xia Yuhuan chuckled: "The things left behind by our ancestors are naturally extremely powerful. Don't be misled by those ideas that condemn outdated ideas."

Not everything passed down from ancient times is necessarily valuable, but it certainly can't all be dross.

However, some things are not clearly defined, so they are easily confused, and the true essence is lost along with the dross.

This is how many medical skills are passed down.

Xia Yuhuan couldn't cure Wang Qi's poison before because there was one component in the poison she wasn't sure about. Now that she's sure, she can naturally cure it.

But after confirming it, Xia Yuhuan felt even more confused.

She was so familiar with that ingredient that she felt it shouldn't belong to this era.

Even now, even though that component has been separated and appears to be only in its initial, incomplete form, it still seems unbelievable to her.

Xia Yuhuan frowned as she thought about it.
